Goats Do Roam.



After spending all day yesterday building with a great bunch of volunteers (all professional wallers - many of them familiar friends going way back to early days of the DSWAC)  helping out at the first of two pre-build weekends, before the actual 2013 Canadian Dry Stone Festival in Alton on June 29 -30) several of us were invited back to Eric's farm for drinks. On arrival we discovered some of his goats had got loose and were grazing on the blackhouse roof. 


No wonder goats were up there - the blackhouse roof has a delicious looking crop of several varieties of sedum, tall tufts of allium, patches of hen and chicks, a smattering of cactus and some lush garden variety weeds. 




Im just kidding around. We put them up there for a goat-o-op.
